VITRUVIUS ON THE VALUE OF MUSIC IN ENHANCING THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE ANTIQUE THEATER’S AUDIENCE SPACE. Part 2.

Архитектон, 2021
In Vitruvius' legacy, music is noted as being important for enhancing the architectural acoustics of ancient theaters. In particular, he described in detail the sounding vessels, or ηχεια (“echea”), the effectiveness of which still has not been proven ...

The Sensitivity of Hearing-Impaired Adults to Acoustic Attributes in Simulated Rooms [PDF]

, 2013
In previous studies we have shown that older hearing-impaired individuals are relatively insensitive to changes in the apparent width of broadband noises when those width changes were based on differences in interaural coherence [W. Whitmer, B.

Conformally Perforated Shellular Metamaterials with Tunable Thermomechanical and Acoustic Properties

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces Conformally Perforated Shellular Metamaterials (CPSMs), which overcome TPMS design limitations by mapping 2D cellular layouts onto 3D surfaces. CPSMs exhibit enhanced elastic stiffness, thermal conductivity, and acoustic performance compared to intact P‐type shellulars, demonstrating their potential as multifunctional ...
